Explore how digital images are built from pixels in a grid, and map a picture into a Revit panel array with Dynamo, overwriting elements with pixel data.
Learn how dynamo interprets an image to color revit panels by mapping a ten by ten image onto generic model cubes, overwriting colors and handling element order.
Map image panels to Revit using Dynamo, handling square and circular openings and a rotation parameter. Use correct instanced parameters and remap ranges to ensure panels respond properly.
Run Dynamo graphs with the Dynamo Player to avoid opening them. Prepare graphs by adding inputs, renaming notes to inputs, and setting X and Y samples for office distribution.
Map images to double-curved surfaces in Revit using divided surfaces and Dynamo, control panel patterns and radii, and apply color-driven panel types for complex geometry.
Map image brightness to six panel types in Revit using Dynamo, enabling a six-type configuration (no opening, 40 mm opening, etc.) for cost-effective, standardized facades.
This course will teach you how to map an image to panels in Revit.
Used creatively, this is a powerful design tool to have in hand.
You can use pictures as well as abstract images to drive geometry in Revit with the help of Dynamo BIM.
You will learn several different ways to achieve the result. We will be using Curtain Walls, Divided Surfaces and Generic models.
Additionally, you will learn how to prepare a Dynamo file for use with the Dynamo Player.
You will learn how to work with lists, how to sort them and transpose them, how to push changes to families in Revit from within Dynamo.
You get all the necessary files - Revit families and Dynamo graphs. However, I advise you to regard every chapter as an assignment - try it yourself first and only if you can't manage it go and inspect the exercise files.
This course is suitable for Revit users with some experience who want to try out a new and funny technique.
